The win also completed the Treble for Pep Guardiola and his team, winning the Premier League and FA Cup as well.
This is Manchester City's first Champions League win, and it ends a long journey that included three quarter-finals, two semi-finals, and one previous final (which they lost in 2021).
The win also seals Guardiola's place as one of the greatest managers of all time.
The team's owner, Sheikh Mansour, watched the game and smiled benignly as he saw the fruits of his fortune achieve the ultimate victory.
However, the team is currently facing Premier League charges of 115 breaches of financial rules that may sully their glories.
Despite this, the team denies the charges and will defend themselves strenuously.
The win was celebrated with tears and emotional exchanges between Guardiola, the players, and the fans, who remember the club's difficult past.
Manchester City won the 2022 Champions League final against Inter Milan with a goal from Rodri in extra time.
This is the first Champions League title for City, and it comes after two previous defeats in the final and a semi-final loss the previous year.
City's manager, Pep Guardiola, had been brought to the club to win the Champions League and this victory marks the completion of his mission.
City has now won seven Premier League titles, three FA Cups, and six League Cups since being bought by Abu Dhabi in 2008.
This victory could signal the start of an era of Champions League dominance for City.
